Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about using Stamp Duty Estimator
Stamp duty is a state-set percentage of the property's value (or circle rate, whichever is higher). This tool applies the state rate and adds the registration fee to show your approximate total.
In several states — including Delhi, Haryana, Maharashtra, Punjab, Rajasthan, and Uttarakhand — women buyers get a concessional rate, typically 1–2% lower than men. Select Female in the Buyer field to see it applied.
Stamp duty is the tax on the transaction document; the registration fee is the charge for recording the sale deed at the sub-registrar office. Both are paid at registration.
Most states charge on the higher of agreement value or the government's circle/ready-reckoner rate. Enter whichever is higher for a safer estimate.
